Chapter 48: bulk
Chapter 48 Big goods
Xu Shiyan tied the tree stump with a rope in advance, and Yang Chunming and others supported it, so the tree stump fell without too much vibration, and naturally it did not hurt the mallet inside.
The tree stump fell down, and Xu Shiyan began to take a stick and clean up the rotten wood and soil bit by bit.
Gradually, all the reed heads of ginseng are revealed, and a small section of ginseng shoulder is exposed underneath.
Just looking at that shoulder, you can tell that the ginseng tree underneath is not small.
"It's really a big deal, it's great." Yang Chunming and others were surrounded, and when they saw it, they cheered.
Xu Shiyan saw the ginseng, but they entered the mountain together. It is said that those who see it have a share, and they can also share a part of this ginseng tree.
At this time, the mood of several people is really extremely excited.
As for the others, they don’t have this luck. They came here just to watch the excitement.
Xu Shixiang didn't step forward to help, he looked at his watch, it was getting late.
"Let's go, let's go back to work, there are still thirty feet left before the hammer is raised, so we can't delay." This is said to those watching the excitement.
"Third brother, you don't have to go back in a few afternoons, I think you will be able to go back tonight.
Let me tell my family later, it will save them from worrying at home. "This is said to Xu Shiyan, Yang Chunming and others.
This ginseng tree is not small, and it is inside the stump, so it is a bit difficult to lift it out.
Based on Xu Shixiang's estimate, it would be early if he could carry it out tomorrow.
It is estimated that these people will have to stay in the mountains tonight.
The family members must be worried that they won't see them go back, so they have to go back and send a letter.
"Well, we must be staying here tonight.
There is no need for you to send messages at home, I will let Jianshe and Dajun go back, let him go to each house to talk about it, and then bring some food for use. "
Looking at the situation, I will definitely live in the mountains tonight, and if things go wrong tomorrow, I will have to stay for another night.
The food and drink for the five people had to be resolved, and besides, it was very cold in the mountains at the end of September.
They didn’t bring too thick clothes, so they just stayed like this. If they could get cold at night, they had to send someone back to get their clothes and luggage.
Xu Shixiang was right when he heard it, so he didn't say anything, and led the people away.
Zhao Jianshe and Wang Zhijun also left. They went back to the village to report the news and pick up various things for food along the way.
"Chunming, Erniu, don't just stand here and watch, you two, hurry up and collect firewood, we have to sleep here tonight."
Xu Shiyan knew that these few had no experience in mountain climbing, so he ordered them to work.
Yang Chunming and Li Erniu are both able to work. According to what Xu Shiyan said, they chopped wood very quickly.
Then build two ditches around here, pick up a lot of firewood and come back, and light a fire.
The sun was setting, and the light in the forest was getting darker and darker. On Xu Shiyan's side, the ginseng had just exposed a small section of his shoulder.
At this time, it is no longer possible to continue, otherwise the ginseng skin will be easily damaged, and once damaged, it will not be able to sell at a high price.
"Third brother, it's getting dark, you haven't rested this afternoon, so get up and move around.
Wait for Jianshe and them to come back later, let’s get some food and continue tomorrow. "
Yang Chunming saw that it was getting dark, so he called Xu Shiyan to rest.
Xu Shiyan had been squatting there all afternoon carrying the mallet. He was really tired, so he stopped what he was doing, stood up straight and stretched his arms and legs.
"Look at this, this ginseng tree is not small, I don't think it may be able to carry all of it out tomorrow."
This ginseng tree is not small, and it grows in a special environment. It is difficult to dig and the speed cannot be increased.
"Well, it doesn't look small, third brother, can this ginseng be sold for a lot of money?
Hey, if this can be sold for several thousand yuan, I will have the money to marry a wife. " Li Erniu asked with a simple smile.
"Don't ask nonsense, you boy. The elders have rules. If you get a stick, you can only talk about the size, and you are not allowed to infer the price."
Yang Chunming raised his head and patted Er Niu on the back of the head to warn him.
Li Erniu didn't feel annoyed when he got hit, he just smiled, "Oh, I see, I won't ask after that.
Anyway, this is to follow the third brother to get rich, and the third brother is lucky, so we just follow to pick up the cheap ones. "Don't look at Li Erniu as stupid, but he is not stupid.
Before Chen Deyong and others, didn’t they also look at Xu Shiyan’s fortune with envy?
Those people tried to get rich by taking advantage of Xu Shiyan's luck, but they didn't get anything, and even hurt one person.
They followed up the mountain to pick up mushrooms, but in the end they encountered a stick. Isn’t this the same as picking mushrooms for nothing?
Besides, Xu Shiyan contributed the most. It would be nice for them to take advantage of it. Why are you still thinking about it so much?
Yang Chunming felt comfortable listening to these words, so he nodded.
"That's right, remember one sentence, no matter what to do with this ginseng tree, it is the third brother who decides, understand?"
"Hey, hey, I understand." Li Erniu nodded quickly.
Xu Shiyan over there was about to say something when he saw someone approaching in the distance.
Xu Shiyan and the others rushed over to greet them. It was Zhao Jianshe and Wang Zhijun who came back with their straps and bags, wheezing and panting.
"Third brother, all five families have been notified, and each family has brought dry food and clothes.
My dad said that there might be wild animals in the mountains at night, so he asked me to bring two guns for self-defense. "
When Zhao Jianshe saw Xu Shiyan, he hurriedly said.
Xu Shiyan nodded when he heard the words, sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy.
Zhao Dahai asked his son to bring a gun. Why is it to prevent wild animals? I'm afraid it's for defense, right?
Now the whole village knows that they met a club in the mountains, who knows if anyone has a bad idea?
What if a group of people come at night, kill them, and take away that ginseng tree? It's not impossible.
Man dies for money, birds die for food, the truth has not changed since ancient times, so the heart of guarding against people is indispensable.
"Succeed, thank you for your hard work, two younger brothers. In the past two days, let's cheer up and wait for the ginseng to be carried out and go down the mountain."
Xu Shiyan took the luggage and carried it on his shoulders, and returned to the gate with everyone.
Zhao Jianshe and the two brought a complete set of things, including dry food and water, so everyone settled down and had dinner first.
Afterwards, they were divided into groups, Zhao Jianshe and Wang Zhijun guarded the first half of the night, and Yang Chunming and Li Erniu guarded the second half of the night to prevent beasts and people from approaching.
As for Xu Shiyan, he has to concentrate on lifting ginseng during the day, which consumes a lot of energy, and he must sleep well at night, so he sleeps at night.
It was safe and sound all night, and Xu Shiyan started to work at dawn the next day. The others boiled water and cooked, and continued after breakfast.
The ginseng tree is really not small, probably because it grows on the stump. In order to absorb more water, the roots are very long.
So the next day they still couldn't dig out all of them, and they had to live on the mountain at night.
Xu Shiyan was tired all day and went to bed early at night. Yang Chunming found opportunities to catch up on sleep during the day, so they still kept vigil at night.
Sleeping until midnight, he suddenly heard a movement. Without saying a word, Yang Chunming raised his gun and pointed towards the direction of the sound.
Then, there seemed to be a messy sound, and then there was no movement.
